The Silent Wife of The CEO I Hurt You Too
"He's gone."Tiana informed Zoe, who was curled up near the window. Zoe nodded, a gesture of gratitude. The nod caused the suppressed tears to fall."I..."Tiana wanted to say, 'I told you so,' when she saw Zoe in such a pitiful state.But Tiana couldn't bring herself to be so heartless. Despite the warnings, Zoe had made her choice. It was too late; she couldn't undo the emotions that now made her cry.Tiana sat in front of her and examined Zoe's wrists, bruised from Wolf's grip yesterday. "He didn't ask you to do anything strange, did he?"Tiana suspected Wolf might have done something irrational, as Zoe hadn't shared anything about what had happened.Zoe shook her head but didn't elaborate further. She didn't want to move her hands to write or type. She had come seeking a hiding place, and for Tiana, that was enough. She would protect her."Wolf said he heard your voice. Is that true?" Tiana asked.Zoe's tears flowed again. She wiped them away, but they kept falling. The disappoint

"He doesn't want to meet me," Wolf said to Sara, who seemed to sigh."No sh*t, Sherlock. That's genius." Sara sarcastically remarked, as it didn't take a genius to figure out why Zoe didn't want to meet him."Do you think treating a woman roughly like that will make them adore you?" Sara hissed, releasing the frustration she had been holding back since yesterday.Wolf tried to unwind by rubbing his still-throbbing forehead and sitting in the lengthy chair that Sara's patients typically use during talk sessions. Wolf wasn't Sara's patient, but he had laid on that chair before today for a physical session."Is it true that after this, Zoe will find it even harder to talk?" Wolf asked, closing his eyes. His body needed rest, having been too tense since yesterday."That's just a possibility. I concluded. Zoe's inability to speak comes from fear, desperation, and negative feelings like that. She spoke yesterday because she felt forced. Angry and desperate due to what you said to her. That'

Becca frowned in confusion but then shook her head. "Nope. Are you not feeling well?"The question was a surprise that should never have come out of Wolf's mouth.“Why? We can sleep together every day if you want.” Wolf responded, offended because Becca's answer came out so casually.“Maybe, but most likely you'll be sleeping with other women every day too. I don't want to marry a man like that. Although I am not married yet, I understand that marriage encompasses more than just physical intimacy. There are many other things.” Becca explained her reasons bluntly. She could see that Wolf wasn't angry. He was irritated, but not angry.“Oh... Okay.” Wolf dismissed Becca with a wave of his hand while leaning his chin on his desk to think.Until now, Wolf had underestimated marriage because he didn't want the burden of being faithful, and of course, he thought marriage was something he could easily attain. But so far, the two women closest to him have clearly stated their refusal if the op

Upon arriving at the building specified by Iris, Wolf easily found an underground parking space reserved exclusively for him as the building owner. Although Wolf rarely visited, the parking spot was always vacant for him.Wolf headed straight to the second floor of the basement, where the office managing the building's administration was located.Wolf, who usually only visited every six months to inspect the conditions and receive financial reports, surprised several people as he entered."Mr. Wolf? You didn't inform us that you were coming!" Bob, the manager overseeing the entire operation of the building, exclaimed. Other staff members also stood up from their seats as Bob approached Wolf."I want to check on something," said Wolf.Bob was not only surprised but also fearful. His hands trembled, fearing that Wolf might find fault."What can... What do you want to check? Can I help you with anything?" Bob tried to sound calm."Was there an accident in this building three years ago? S

Bob knocked on the door and was greeted by a surprised face when Wolf opened it."Just continue with your usual tasks," said Bob to that man. He then immediately led Wolf towards a large computer that served as the central hub for all CCTV recordings in the building. He selected a folder and showed the footage to Wolf.As Wolf sat in the chair provided by Bob and began playing the selected video recordings, he asked, "Is this the raw footage or the footage selected by the police?""This one is for the police. The raw footage is over here." Bob pointed to his computer screen, which displayed more folders. Bob specialized in creating copies and handing them over to the police for their reports."Did you report this to me?" Wolf asked. He couldn't recall receiving a report like this before."Yes, I sent it along with the monthly financial report. It includes details of the incident and other information," Bob explained.Wolf sighed internally. He didn't remember because he had never cons

"Did the police also question you when you handed over the footage, and did you say exactly the same thing as Billy did to the police?" Wolf guessed."Of course. I'm not covering up the truth," Bob confidently affirmed.Wolf couldn't even be angry because Bob didn't feel like he had done anything wrong. He didn't feel like he had conveyed Billy's version of the truth to the police.Billy manipulated Bob. Billy implanted the idea of what happened in Bob's head, and eventually, Bob repeated it to the police. Thus, it was a perfect story.But Wolf, who didn't know any story behind the soundless video from the beginning and watched all the CCTV footage without prejudice, found it easier to discover strange details.The police might have overlooked it, having heard testimonies from both Bob and Billy—and surely Max, who was under Billy's influence, while Zoe couldn't defend herself as she was in the hospital.Wolf sighed. There was a bit of enlightenment, but he still couldn't understand t

Sanchez laughed heartily again."No need, Wolf. This is just a small matter. I won't be that harsh on you. We've been friends for a long time; I'll tell you for free. But I want to know first why you want an explanation about that incident."Sanchez wanted to make sure he wouldn't be in danger when he told the truth. He wasn't worried that Wolf would report him or leak secrets—just ensuring. Their relationship was symbiotic.Many of Wolf's artists would fall if Sanchez opened his mouth, and Wolf could easily prove how much bribery money Sanchez had received over time. They were both cautious now."I just want to know if this incident is dangerous for Iris or not. I'm cleaning up her entire past. Let's say that. She has caused me enough trouble lately." Wolf presented a reason he had already prepared. He knew Sanchez wouldn't easily fall for a light excuse."Oh, I see. What if I tell you that this incident won't affect Iris? Is that enough?" Sanchez asked."No. I want to know what real

Zoe stood near the stairs that would lead her to the stage. She just stood there because everything was ready. Her outfit, consisting of only two small pieces of fabric, was perfect, along with her makeup and the red stiletto matching the wig she wore today.But Zoe couldn't bring herself to climb those stairs. She had tried to focus on the music and ignore the cheers of the audience to move her body, but it didn't work.Zoe felt like crying again at the thought of having to undress up there. She tried to recall how easily she had climbed and performed this job not long ago. It should still be the same. Nothing had changed. Her body was the same, her face was the same, and her need for money was still the same. But Zoe couldn't do it anymore."Are you going up or not?!" Megan's reprimand came from the stage. Zoe's turn to perform was approaching. However, Megan had to step forward because Zoe still hadn't come out.Zoe wanted to ask for a little time, but Megan scoffed when she saw he

"LORIA MOREAU!"Zoe froze. She heard her name, but couldn't believe it was hers."Wake up, baby. And smile. It’s yours."Wolf's whisper finally stirred emotions in Zoe. She blushed with emotion, only able to stand when Wolf helped her. Unfortunately, Wolf couldn't escort her to the stage.Luckily, Syanne's hand was there to assist her, followed by Jacob, who was closest to the stage, helping her navigate the stairs to reach the top.Zoe expressed her gratitude several times to the person presenting her award before finally standing in front of the microphone to deliver her speech.Zoe took a few deep breaths, wiping away tears, before finally being able to address the camera and the patiently waiting audience."This is something I never dreamed of, standing here and receiving this." Zoe glanced down at the trophy in her hands once more and smiled."I... I once buried this dream. I no longer hoped to sing, let alone receive this. Not long
The Silent Wife of The CEO Extra 1 - End and Done
Zoe did something that Wolf would not like. She wouldn't lie, but she would inform him later, once the task was complete. Zoe wants to handle this herself without anyone else's interference.Of course, it's not easy. She walks with an anxious heart. Zoe adjusts her sunglasses several times on her nose, while her other hand carries a beautiful pink flower and gift box.Zoe feels anxious, knowing that people will recognize her when she enters later. But she's resigned. It's not possible to hide her identity now, considering the person she's going to meet.Approaching the counter after filling out a form with the prisoner's name and number, Zoe submits it."Please wait over there. We'll call you," says the prison guard behind the counter.He stares at Zoe several times as another guard checks Zoe's belongings—making sure no contraband is smuggled, glancing to confirm—even reading her name on the form but doesn't comment.Relieved—because

"Here." Wolf handed the cup to Zoe.Zoe wanted to take it, but her hands were still busy responding to messages on her phone."Cliff really doesn't have a girlfriend, does he?" Zoe asked."Hm? Why are you asking?" Wolf asked suspiciously."For Sara. She wanted to confirm this because she doesn't believe someone like Cliff is still single.Zoe sighed, showing the message Sara sent to her. Showing that she wasn't lying. She was indeed asking for Sara, not for herself."Not yet. According to Clay, he used to have one—a journalist or an MC, if I'm not mistaken. But they broke up when Cliff was about to move here. Either he moved and then they broke up, or they broke up and then he moved."Wolf just repeated Clay's words, of course. And now Zoe repeated them in the form of a message to Sara and sent it to reassure her."How do you know these details?" After sending the message and taking her cup, Zoe asked in amazement. The knowle

"Should have been in jail..."Max denied reality once again. For him, Loria still couldn't possibly be Zoe because she should have been in jail."You're endlessly foolish!" Billy slammed the table and went berserk.He grabbed Max by the collar with his handcuffs. Of course, chaos ensued immediately, and shouts erupted as the police guarding the area rushed in to subdue Billy, pinning him to the ground.But evidently, Billy was truly furious with Max, as he continued to resist and curse at Max even while being held down."YOUR STUPIDITY KNOWS NO BOUNDS!""SILENCE!"The judge's thundering voice overshadowed Billy's outburst. Not only Billy fell silent, but also the journalists and spectators who were making noise."Once again, if anyone disturbs me, I will reschedule this trial! UNDERSTOOD?!"The silence in the room signified that they all understood."Take him out. Mr. Dacosta, I'll make sure your charges include this incident. Assaul
The Silent Wife of The CEO Your Other Name
The prosecutor began with standard questions, asking about Sara's background—education, how long she had been a psychiatrist, and so on. Only after that did she mention Zoe."Since when has Ms. Zoe Anderson been your patient?" the prosecutor asked."For over a year," Sara replied clearly. Gone was the cheerful demeanor she usually wore when facing patients."Can you explain Ms. Anderson's condition at that time?""Zoe came with a desire to heal because she suffered severe trauma that was very visible and prevented her from leading a normal life.""Could you please explain more about that trauma?"Sara nodded calmly because everything matched the expectations given by Cliff."Zoe came in a state where she couldn't speak, but medical examinations showed that Zoe didn't have any physical injuries anymore. The absence of any disturbances in her nerves confirmed that her inability to speak was a result of PTSD. Severe trauma due to a bad incident

"That's... Strange. You must be kidding!" Iris shook her head vigorously while staring at Zoe from head to toe, trying to recognize her as the same person she saw before with Max."Have I ever joked when talking to you?" Wolf replied flatly, pulling a chair for Zoe. The chair is furthest from Iris. She was still at a loss for words and kept staring at Zoe."Are you really Zoe Anderson?" Iris continued to stare at Zoe."Yes, before I changed my name to Loria Moreau, that was also my name." Zoe replied calmly. The apprehension that had plagued her earlier had vanished.The meeting with Iris might have been unexpected and almost annoying, but Zoe felt empowered, knowing that she was currently in control.Seeing Iris's surprise, Zoe felt satisfaction. A victory for successfully showing her new self to Iris. Zoe was no longer the disheveled individual she had encountered, who garnered disdain due to her perceived inferiority."That's impossible! You don't lo
The Silent Wife of The CEO Your Met Her
Zoe smoothed her cream-colored skirt and blazer. Darcy's choice, so Zoe wouldn't appear intimidating or grim.She felt nervous, as she could see from a distance how journalists were crowding in front of the courthouse. They were undoubtedly waiting for the enigmatic figure of Zoe Anderson. There were no images of Zoe in the news because there was no documentation of Zoe's case.Due to her prior injuries and hospitalization, Zoe did not attend the trial as a suspect. No one recorded her face or bothered to find out at the hospital because the case clearly made her a suspect.Zoe also ran her fingers through her hair, which was back to being blonde. She wasn't wearing a wig today. It was the first time she would appear without her black hair, and honestly, it made Zoe even more nervous. It felt like she was removing the mask that had protected her. Zoe would be Zoe in front of everyone, no longer Loria.Wolf, who had been observing Zoe's nervousness, said, "Your be
The Silent Wife of The CEO Your Cunning Move
"He's trying to save himself! So cunning!" Wolf hissed irritably.It was clear from Iris's statement that she only wanted to save herself by blaming Max and Billy."She made them look like she was under pressure to hide the truth about Zoe. Iris then used that pressure as an excuse to justify all her strange actions. She hid from her mistakes by using mental health as an excuse." Sara shook her head, looking annoyed. She was obviously upset when someone used mental health as a lie."She managed to escape using a lifeboat before her ship really sank." Cliff looked at Iris, who continued to sob and cry amidst her words."It doesn't matter. Let it be," Zoe said, folding her arms and staring at the television without blinking."What do you mean, let it be? She's lying again!" Wolf also pointed to the television with a disapproving face."At least she has been honest, especially about me. Whatever she said makes things right; just let it be," Zoe repeated.
The Silent Wife of The CEO Your Unwanted Opinion
"Why so fast?" Zoe stared at the summons she had received in panic.When Benson mentioned that she would receive a summons to attend court, Zoe assumed the trial would take place maybe around one or two months later, but it turned out to be only three days later and effective in two days."I think Benson waited until his file was complete before calling you. That's why now he just has to submit it to the court, and the schedule comes down immediately," Cliff explained. He took the letter from her hand to examine it."I only have to come once, right?"Zoe asked to confirm, as she really didn't want to attend the trial multiple times."Yes, that's why I asked to meet with the psychiatrist who treated you. I need to ask them to answer questions about your condition well. They have to give the right answers for the judge to grant the request," Cliff explained today's plan."I think they'll be here soon. She said they still had a patient earlier,
